Verdict

Baileys Warrior went close to returning a shock winner when beaten only a head here recently ahead of Graces Quest. But TAZAMAN is more consistent having won two of his last three outings including a defeat of the re-opposing Sophosc at Kempton last time. He looks worth sticking with given True Romance recorded his only win on the all-weather way back in 2017 and Ice Canyon is hard to catch right
